The Mafia King Ãmore...(Taekook)

Taehyung
Please be careful with that.
I reminded the men carrying the paintings towards the hotel. Over ten paintings were carried from the truck.
Some can be handheld and life-size and some are as big as walls.
Amy
You really need to take a chill pill, taehyung.
Amy popped out beside me, arms crossed, face held in amusement.
After telling her that I decided to finally sell my paintings, she immediately went to support me.
I Am so grateful that she's here. I'm not sure if I can do it alone.
Taehyung
Can't. You know how much I value those paintings.
I felt a tinge of regret but I know this will help those who are in need. She smiled at me softly.
Amy
Then you better detach yourself with those artworks.
Amy
Tonight you're not gonna be officially the owner.
Taehyung
Is it bad that I'm hoping nobody's going to buy it and
Taehyung
At the same time hoping that every painting will be sold?
Amy
It's not, taehyung. What you're feeling is completely normal
Amy
I mean those paintings held your memories with yeonjun
She placed her hands on my shoulders in a comforting way.
Amy
Remember this auction will help the orphans.
Amy
This has been your and yeonjun's dream to sell your works to help kids with no families.
I nodded as she smiled at me warmly. Tonight the elites will gather for a charity event. My paintings are the highlight of the night.
Money will be donated to charity especially to the orphanages. I'm planning to give twenty-five percent of it to where yeonjun and I grew up.
The night finally came and it was spent with succulent food, expensive wine and drinks, random chatters and boisterous laughter.
Everyone was dressed in their most gorgeous gowns and expensive suits. I could not help
But feel nervous with the idea that the paintings will no longer be in my care. Paintings that hold our memories together.
Surprisingly, the auction was beyond successful. The paintings were sold. All of them. I doubt that they understood or appreciated it.
Let's be real. Those old geezers and young millionaires only show off their money. Based on my experience,
Wealthy collectors who truly appreciate works of art are rare. Either way, the children and the poor will be benefited from their arrogance.
My apprehension though made me leave one painting behind. The painting which yeonjun and I created.
We literally made this together and it was only recently before three months ago. I broke a promise to myself
And perhaps with my longtime friend too. I simply could not sell it.
